Heyhey. It's evening so I have time to write up some thoughts. I think you ought to reconsider how youre lighting this. It looks like theres an intense blue spotlight shining on your staff and its washing out the colors of your texture. If youre keen on using the base as a spotlight, you should make it fall off faster…
I understand that and to some degree respect it, I was straight edge until I was 20 wouldn't even drink alcohol, but enjoyment of work merely falls down to more chemicals such as serotonin, people differ so wildly in their biochemical makeup many people are naturally often tired and need coffee, others Need anti…
I was pleasantly surprised by this entry. While it can't hope to live up to the example set by the original film, it easily outstrips the other two sequels that the series has had. If you were hoping for a film that has the same swell and sense of majesty as the first Jurassic Park, look elsewhere. That's not what Jurassic…
When it comes to science-fiction, you have quite a bit of lee-way when it comes to reality. Laser swords are about as believeable as space stations the size of moons that can detonate entire planets. At some point suspension of disbelief takes over. At the same time, I agree that the prequel trilogy does an ass-tastic job…
The only reason this would happen is if your game exporter isn't properly reading/storing Maya's vertex normals. The instant you start saving Maya's vertex normals (since this is where your whole original issue comes from) then the entire problem goes away in the game engine. If your game engine generates its own vertex…
@Belkun: Glad you liked the set man! As for the weapon, we initially started with a staff that looks like pretty much a shaped stick, as is with most of his weapons. Considering the darker tone of the set as well, we decided to go for a flower because there was only one flower for him and ours is significantly different,…
This isn't PC vs. Mac, it's not even about Windows vs Mac. It's about dispelling any notion that one is any different, or better, than the other. They aren't different, they're the same. Mac is just an Intel powered PC with a custom distribution of FreeBSD and DRM to prevent it from running on generic hardware. They also…
Hi Doomathon, I've worked in games, VFX and animation for 7 years (and counting) but primarily in production management. I can't give feedback on the quality of your art, but should be able to give a couple pointers on your resume. Be aware though that ultimately it's your portfolio that will get you the interview, but…
:icon60: Thanks Arturow, mrnunez & Evanescfan! Heboltz3:: I thought that was pretty tame? Could be worse... much worse *evil grin* slipsius::Respectfully, we may have to agree to disagree. The rules, to me, seemed lenient and relaxed..all well within reason. Create a uniquely creative run or walk cycle clearly showing the…
Hi. I'm new to Polycount. This is actually my first post after saying hello on the "hello board". I've been putting together some images to post in a "Sketchbook" post, and other forum stuff. This post just caught my eye and I really can't help but comment. So -- I'm a woman. Right? I want to be making video games because…
